Morrissey Cancels US Tour Dates

The remaining dates of the Morrissey U.S. North American tour have officially been pulled down due to medical reasons. The singer has suffered a series of medical mishaps over the past few months including a bleeding ulcer, Barrett’s esophagus and double pneumonia. Despite his best efforts to try to continue touring, Morrissey has to take a hiatus and will not be able to continue on the rest of the tour. Morrissey thanks all of his fans for their well wishes and thoughts. Refunds for the remaining shows are available at point of purchase.

Edit: Is there a particular reason this is written in third-person? Since there isn't a source, I can't tell who wrote this, and it sounds almost like he's just talking about himself. (Which, all considered, wouldn't be too surprising for Morrisey.)
